Soroptimist Live Your Dream Award

The Live Your Dream Awards assist women who provide the primary source of financial support for their families by providing them with the resources they need to improve their education, skills, and employment prospects. The program is unique because it allows recipients, many of whom have overcome enormous obstacles, to use the awards to offset costs associated with their efforts to attain higher education or skills training.
